It must have been fate or perhaps luck, because we asked a question about the highest percentage of people killed by shirt color on Star Trek in round 1, and although the Red Shirt Security Detail didn't win round 1, they won rounds 2-4. They capped off their night by pulling the jackpot chip. Pretty impressive stuff, we'd say. Here are the topics they chose for next week:
Downton Abbey
House of Cards (netflix series)
Pagan Holidays
Symphonies of Beethoven
Secondary Characters in Harry Potter
Dewey Decimal Classification
Romanov Dynasty
A Midsummer Night's Dream (play)
Lyrics by The Smiths
Morcheeba (band)
Newton's Laws of Motion
Guardians of the Galaxy (comic book series)
Structure & Function of Neurons
Quotes from Shakespeare

Study up, and see if you can knock off the Red Shirts next week.
